But I didn't object to chill music, so I'm not sure what your point is.
I specifically referred to algorithmically generated elevator music, aka "low effort music". Not chill music or music without lyrics.
My point is that people do not want garbage, but get used to it. So we shouldn't let companies producing this shit off the hook because it's "what people want". That's not the full picture, and is far too generous to businesses and advertising.
Surely you're not objecting to the notion that public tastes can be shaped to some degree?
